to insert some word somewhere in the line with shell (or perl)

hello mighty all
there is a line of 50 words and i need to take a random number of words from the beginning (20 words for example) then put my word then add other 10 words from the continue then add another my special word then add 20 words till the end..

my own knowledge base can say it is possible with making an array with 1 or maybe 2-3 words in each section then write back 5-10 sections then word then another sections etc..

but i'm sure there is more easier way Smilie
can u show it to me?
